#and yall have been MEAN to 2016 last time

✨✨🪐✨✨

Hey everyone, it’s the Leap Year, that means it Leaper’s birthday. So I did some art of them

That being said, I want to post a personal update on well… *gestures to all of tumblr*

By now I’m sure the news of Tumblr’s partnership with mid journey and other AI art making companies has already spread, it’s bad…really bad

I understand there’s the opt out toggle (which I have already opted out of) but that being said, it’s clear that it’s not even reliable and that the data of my art and posts may be taken anyway despite it. For all I know, all of my posts as far back as 2016 may have already been given to these companies and I wouldn’t know

I have tried so hard to avoid it, I have jumped ship from both twitter and instagram to avoid this issue, but now it just seems unavoidable.

I know there’s AI poisoning tools like glaze and nightshade, however the downloads only work on desktop computers and unfortunately for the time being I have only been able to use mobile devices to make and post my creations. And to use the mobile friendly version of these tools I have to be accepted into WebGlaze via DM’s by their social media staff themselves. And who knows if they will give me an invite, it’s been a few days since I contacted them and I have received no replies yet.

So with that being said, this may or may not be the last piece of art I post here on tumblr. I genuinely hope not, I hope I get access to these poisoning tools soonish. But my hope is practically non existent. The internet seems to be becoming harder and harder for small artists like me to exist in online spaces. And while I barely have an audience, I still don’t appreciate the idea that someone could be profit off mine or my other fellow artist’s stolen work while I can barely muster the courage to even open commissions (or for my friends who do have commissions open and they are barely getting any clients or the recognition they deserve)

I do plan on still being active here, even if it’s just reblogging or liking posts or answering asks, but when it comes to sharing art online I can say that I have to step away from a bit until I know I can post my art knowing it can be exploited without me knowing.

For now the only thing I can say is if you have a toy house account, you can find me and my art there if anyone l still wants to see what I make. And I still plan on participating in artfight this upcoming July as well. But until I get access to those poisoning tools or some miracle happens and AI art dies, I genuinely don’t see myself posting art here anymore.

I will pin a separate post with my toyhouse account on it if anyone wants to follow me over there. I will keep yall updated if circumstances change for any reason though.

But on one final note, if this is truly the end for me and I can’t get the resources, I do want to say thank you to everyone who supported this blog. Either it be my mutuals, my regular followers, or even people have simply liked some content from me. I would have never thought posting fanart of jacksepticeye and markiplier would lead me to meeting the people I have met through this site. Tumblr is what inspired me to make art in the first place, I just feel terrible that even watermarks can’t protect my creations anymore.

While this isn’t a permanent goodbye, all I can do is say good night to my art sharing for the time being. Thank you all again, and to my fellow creators I’m sorry you all are also burdened with fighting this fight against AI and I hope we eventually gain victory on it down the road. Nothing will replace those who genuinely pour their heart and soul into art. No matter how good of a computer can mimic it

Im gonna make a new post about this, coz there are a few people in the tags of the post about the UK Ceasefire vote pushing back against my claim that our current leaders are unelected. Let me explain what I mean by that.

Our last General Election was in 2019, when the leader of the Conservative (Tory) party was Boris Johnson and the leader of UK Labour Party (UKLP) was Jeremy Corbyn. Since then, leadership has changed hand once in the UKLP and twice in the Tories, so now in 2023 the leader of UKLP is Keir Starmer and the leader of the Tories is Rishi Sunak. As the Tory Party are currently in power, this makes Sunak the British Prime Minister.

While its perfectly normal to have leadership changes and cabinet reshuffles within government, the issue lies with the fact that no General Elections have been called alongside these changes. While its not a strict legal requirement to call a General Election when the Prime Minister changes mid-term, it has historically been considered a show of good faith and transparency within politics for new Prime Ministers to call snap elections upon being appointed.

For example, Theresa May was internally elected as leader of the Tory Party mid-term in 2016, and she called a snap General Election in 2017 as a show of good faith to the voters, to allow us to have a fair say in the changes.

Neither Lizz Truss nor Rishi Sunak, the two people who have been internally elected as leader of the Tory Party and, by extension, the Prime Minister, have called an Election. By failing to do so, they have broken the (albeit tentative) good faith previously held between the voting public and the government. Leading theories are that Sunak did not have the confidence that he would win a General Election at that time, so he opted to forego the expectation and remain in power without the consent of the voting public.

This is what I mean when I say our current officials are unelected. They were voted in as MPs for their areas in 2019, but Sunak and his cabinet hold positions of higher power without having consulted the British voting public (and for what its worth, they have been hemorrhaging popularity in recent months to boot.)

UK politics yall! shit sucks!

new issue for the current Blue Beetle run dropped

i mean yall landed in Texas… and only got like one brick through a window and Ted's sister on some supervillain shit cause her morality pet little brother hasnt been around enough to keep her xenophobia on the inside. Yer doing pretty well if that and some aliens go home shit is the only bigotry you've faced thus far. Granted wanting to dip is valid also the art on Oo'li's ass is weird. why does she have a thigh gap all the way into her ass cheeks?

also Yeah, I was right about the Horizon being a very very young/recent splinter faction of the Reach. Given how damn old the Reach is, only having been looking for centuries as opposed to the billions of years the Reach has been around if they're only slightly younger than the Oans broke ass superheroes in the house

yall kicked him out the house to start his life over in a new fucking city, why the fuck would he call?

just the fact that we're treating Jaime getting kicked out the house and forced to go live/work elsewhere as just something totally normal and expected is… If yall wanted him to start working you could have just had him start working at the garage that Mr. Reyes owns instead of making him go elsewhere when he was clearly going through some shit They popped up also b/c its Milagro's birthday and she wanted to see him/explore the big city Naomi? The 2016 run is canon to this? Really? That's…certainly a choice. I guess. Not one I would have made. …and certainly, one that makes things make even less sense

just. If the 2016 run is canon to this… I hope that the 2006 run isnt canon. Cause those are incompatible runs and the Reyes look less bad if the 2006 run isnt canon to this like they still look bad, just not nearly as bad as they'd look if the 2006 run was canon and they still decided to kick Jaime out of the house

huh I guess Jaime killing Blood Scarab and its host was not information published online

again I'm still pissed off at the writing choice to make Jaime kill Blood Scarab and its host and the choices in the lead up to it. I don't think well written Jaime would kill someone or entertain the thought of killing someone for more than a second, especially when he'd feel justified in doing so. Like , shit was already covered and the writer of the current run has not proven the chops to pull off a believable drastic turn in Jaime. Especially with the cop out at the last min of Khaji Da taking over to do the killing itself. Khaji Da wasn't able to do that back when it was more murder happy and it went through a lot of character development since. Like writer tried some shit but I dont buy it also whatever happened to Mr. Reyes' cane? ……--- why the absolute cluster fuck is Ted at a board meeting for the Kord company. In. his. superhero. costume. Does he not have a fucking secret identity in this continuity?

the fuck the absolute fuck

Ted… if you fire yer sister… who the fuck is going to run the company? Its not like you have time, otherwise why would the writer have her be in charge if nothing else for you to have the time to superhero

also yer fucking billionaires who gives a fuck if yer being protested? or getting bad press? Lex Corp is still fucking around with Lex in prison you arent doing worse than that rn. Make a public non-apology, do some charity publicity stunts, pay some folks to write nicer articles about you, and move the fuck on

i'm guessing the writers decided on if they're gonna make her go full villain. Given how much she was sniffling and apologizing to Ted last issue this is a bit jarring of a turn. and 11 issues in after a 6 issue miniseries run is a long time to waffle on a character's character

(like nice to see that they finally decided but they wiffled for way too fucking long and her attitude here is a jarring turn from the literal last issue)

bullshit someone called the police, in Texas, on a billionaire, and the police respond

bullshit. If Victoria dont throw some white woman tears and money around and actually gets fucking arrested for Brenda stealing from her, in Texas, and Victoria trying to reclaim her stolen property, in Texas. Man. The writer really expects me to just believe shit huh

to be honest I dont think having Victoria arrested is the smart move here. Especially if Ted's not protesting the arrest. Like, it just seems obvious that it would push her into more supervillain territory and its not like Ted, who helped kidnap and detain someone illegally for days, has any leg to stand on. Morally or legally.

If you've got someone supposedly supergenius smart dealing with someone else supergenius smart and knows that they are that person's morality pet and how the other supergenius thinks. Then tricking them into moving into away from the supervillain side towards a more neutral or heroic side would be a better play than abandoning/openly working against her.

Again, Ted's kidnapped someone in this comic run. Depending on what's canon to this run, Ted's killed people, on purpose and on accident b4. Not almost killed someone, straight up fucking murder on purpose. And not in a elseworld au type beat like Dark Multiverse Countdown.

yeah, what's a better show of intelligence? pushing someone further into a mindset by pushing all the wrong buttons or playing them like a fiddle to the tune you want to see out of them?

Brenda, be realistic, La Dama is very well off but the Kords are fucking billionaires. Yer not gonna get a settlement that even effects them, if it even gets to fucking court

wow, I'm trying to read this. but every other panel just have something that's wrong. Or at least the story isnt good enough to pull me in without nitpicking shit every couple of panels

Traci… the Blood Scarab was made by an Egyptian/whatever the fuck fake country that shit got retconned to magic user. Kha-ef-re has already come back from the dead at least once as a giant mummy. The scarab is a shout out to the god of rejuvenation, resurrection, and the morning sun. Yer a magic user know some magic shit damnit. Its more than likely that Blood Scarab could be back at any second

Madam Xanadu is gonna revive a fucker herself. Ma'am are you at least gonna free the host or are you letting him stay enslaved b/c it suits yer purposes?

huh Jaime uses they/them for Khaji Da

so yeah Oo'li is def supposed to be a love interest for Jaime. Which makes me hate how humanoid she is even more. The decision to make her human fuckable is ugh to me as a furry and an artist who draws critters

so Jaime has been talked into going to university. In the city he currently lives in. And his friends Brenda and Paco have also transferred there

yet another arc of this current Blue Beetle run closes and I still dont like it. There's so much that feels either wrong or I find hard to belive. I've yet to be drawn into this story

[solar-sunnyside-up]

Im pretty sure thats the post that other anon was talking about. They didn't put it real well but they are kinda right.

Things are not as they were. Unless major reform is enacted a third party will never win in the usa. Not as it is. And any hope of reform will disappear if we get another red prez. Between gerrymandering and the electoral college and the pearl clutching moderates who get scared of progressives, to Republicans with no morals who will 100% vote red without hesitation. We effectively only have 2 parties. At least for now.

A Republican candidate hasn't won the popular vote in decades yet they somehow keep running things.

Everyone I know is scared. Scared this will be our last election next year. But no one is more scared than the disabled. We are terrified. Theres a lot of chatter from the right about "dealing" with us and other "freeloaders" we are legitimately scared for our lives.

Protest votes is what gave us that disaster in 2016 and why roe vs wade is gone now. If they win again they are going to push the rest of their agenda through. These posts about refusing to vote or voting third party are exactly like they were in 2016. We've been down this road once already.

If given the choice of neglect vs active homicidal intent we all have at least a chance to survive neglect.

And neglect gives us time to do something. Work locally. Try and push for reform. It's horrible but it's what we have. And for most disabled it's ALL we have. We can't run, other countries won't take us.

I've even seen some scream about revolution but with zero plans for us. What will their revolution do with us? Will we still have our medical access? Will we still be taken care of? Or will the wheels of the revolution be greased with our blood?

K so this is a lot for first in the morning, and I'm glad that someone has explained it a bit more detail bc I cannot stress this enough IM CANADIAN we live with a mutli party system. We, like most of democracies in the world, function with multiple parties at play. And tbh? They still use "splitting the vote is dangerous" talking point here. Here, it's used to prevent ppl from voting for actual reform in government. It's used to say "Green party will never win in they're trying to do rent caps and UBI!" Despite these being popular standing points with many many ppl and honestly the only reason ppl haven't voted them in is bc of this fear tactic. And yet this year, they've come in 3rd place if not 1st in several towns, cities, and providences. They've made headway, and also a lot of liberal ideals and NDP talking points are just old green party ones so ppl want those policies. But if it wasn't for those tree huggers 10 yrs ago fighting, and losing and being made fun of, as a seperate party and forcing them to move that direction they never would.

And let's be clear, Trump won bc of electoral collage he did not win popular vote in 2016 you where overruled the vote didnt matter. Just like Bush did against Al Gore in 2000

That doesn't mean its hopeless or that you shluldnt vote particularlly on local levels. More ppl then ever in history are voting!! Turn outs are the highest they've been since 1950s!! (Also the last peak in union reforms btw) It's scary flipping parties, you might loose to Democrats or Republicans. It will be horrible. But yall are on the cusp of a civil war and fascism anyway, as an outsider who should hold little say over what you choose in this election, I'd still endorse the 3rd party. idk yall your system seems fucked and legit doesn't seem to care how you vote so scare them into using your vote for someone else and make them admit they're not actually counting your votes.

If there's so many ppl like a different policy and candidate it forms another party then you NEED a different party to have a voice anyway. Even if it's in defeat it must exist and I'll happily be on the loosing side.

These are talking points that are used to stagnate progress and to (rightfully) scare ppl into voting for someone they don't like. So if it scares you too much, i wont be upset with however you vote. Its yours. It's scary out here no matter the outcome rn. But I can't let myself be shaken when there is hope and I will personally work for that hope so it's no longer a scary option for those who can't afford the choice.

Travel Tales Pt. 1

This thing started because I wanted to impress a man, yall.

Mid-December 2022, a few days after my birthday, I started flirting with a guy I knew for a few years and found fairly attractive, but never gave any energy to, and the first conversation we had was the spark that lit the match. The following is a snippet of said conversation:

Him - “I’m going to St. Lucia in a few days.” Me - “Make sure and visit Gros Islet and Rodney Bay, the marina is beautiful on a clear moonlit night. You see all the lights from the stars and the boats reflecting on the water and hear the waves slapping against the pier. It’s so calm and serene….” Him - “Hmmm… you’ve been everywhere, I can’t carry you anywhere new!” Me, intrigued - “I haven’t even scratched the surface on places I wanna go, especially in the Caribbean.” Him - “Where do you want to go next?” Me, thinking nothing of what I was saying, cuz I had no intention of actually going anywhere - “Jamaica maybe? Or Barbados, as it’s quite close to home (Tobago).”

Fast forward 4 months, I have my plane ticket to Jamaica in hand and am about to book my Airbnb in Ocho Rios. I am in no way encouraging anyone to do it this way, it is quite inadvisable to travel with someone who you have no real ties with. If you take anything away from reading this, it is that IT LITERALLY TAKES ONE DECISION.

I said yes that day in December. He intoxicated me with the idea of it being just a series of steps to get to the goal. No limits, no hesitation. Logistics would come later. It always seems impossible before you do it, before you take the first leap.

The last time I traveled was 2016 to the aforementioned St. Lucia, with my mom and daughter, who was a toddler at that time. If I’m not mistaken, the decision to go was somewhat similar, with me doing the convincing. Our saving grace was that a close relative was working on the island at the time, so accommodations and transportation was covered (and so expenses were lessened, hallelujah!). Basically, I think I’m due for a couple-hours long plane trip to a new place.

I’m making it sound rather click-bait-y, aren’t I? I haven’t said one thing yet about where the money being spent was coming from, and DUN-DUN-DUNNNN, if Mr. Mysterious is still my plus-one.

Let’s touch on the first part first - the finances.

I currently have a savings account in a local credit union with about $25K in savings, which was one of my savings goals. I am currently permanently employed, bringing in $50K a year before taxes, BUT I was living paycheck to paycheck until last year October, where I made my first official business investment that is bringing in an extra $2K a month, for at least the next year or so. While I have used some of that money to pay off the loan used to make the investment, some of that money was used to fund this trip. I also made the decision to allocate some of my salary towards the trip as well, instead of eating too much into the investment returns. More on this later.

I had identified the PERFECT travel time. I pat myself on the back every time I think about how this played out. In T&T, there’s a public holiday on the 30th of May, and another one on the 8th of June in 2023. Recall that I am employed, and obviously that means I would want to exploit all public holidays (anytime a holiday fell on a Thursday, best believe I was coughing on the phone the Friday so I could be home for 4 whole days…cough cough). I also did some preliminary research on the island and I realized that the island was bigger than home (i.e. I couldn’t drive around the entire island in a day comfortably while sightseeing), so a short 3- or 4- day trip would leave me wanting, or extremely exhausted by trying to squeeze everything into such a short time. After conferring with Mr. Mysterious, I decided that a week-long stay was the sweet spot - enough time to explore some of the tourist-y things to do, while allowing for relaxation and regular life as well. Put those two together, and we get a full 7 days in Jamaica, a prep day before and a rest day after.

Things are falling into place so seamlessly! That only gave me further confirmation that this trip was supposed to happen. Nothing can stop me now! ……..*crickets*

Mr. Mysterious, who has been talking to me almost every single day since that fateful December day, suddenly ghosted me March-month end. No explanation, just radio silence. Granted, we had had a bit of a tiff concerning something unrelated right before the ghosting, but I don’t think it was serious enough to warrant THIS?! I wouldn’t know though, cuz he’s a ghost 👻. I can’t ask. I waited a few days, and sent a follow-up “Hope you are well” text, expecting a response at least, but I've been left on read till this day. I was shook, cuz the safety net I was banking on with this trip was that I wasn’t alone, so the burden of solo travel would be at least lessened. And he also was a seasoned traveler, the exact opposite to me, so that was another thing that made me breathe a bit easier. He knew the ins and outs of international travel and could guide me along. For the first few nights after accepting the disappointment of the absolute curry duck (Trini stale joke) I had just experienced, the trip loomed in front of me, again gigantic and seemingly impossible once again. All the insecurities I had silenced with a proud middle finger at the start of the journey came back up, cackling in my face: Can you even afford to go on this trip alone? How will you get around? You will be stuck in Jamaica for 7 whole days…what were you even thinking? Are you even still considering going, after this shake-up? The nasty chatter got louder in my head. I admit, I looked up whether I could get a full refund of my ticket (no), and if I could ask somebody, anybody to take Mr. Mysterious’ place (also no, that’s unreasonable).

So, I pulled up my big girl panties and made the big girl decision to do my first solo trip to Jamaica in June 2023. I mean, it would have happened eventually - I had put traveling on my vision board, BUT I didn’t expect God to drop me into the deep end like this?!! Damn!

On a more serious note, what I won’t do is question how things are playing out. I have learned long ago that even if things don’t work out exactly how I planned it to, things always work out in the end. Maybe I would be so caught up in building my future career that I won’t have time to travel as much as I like. Maybe this is exactly what I need to build some more confidence in myself and my abilities. Maybe this is what I need to clear out the fuzz in my head - time away from everything, in a hammock, spending much-needed alone time. It will be revealed to me why this happened when it happened, how it happened, in due time. I’m not even stressed or pressed. Also, I am on the last leg of my degree, and having put blood, sweat and tears into the last couple years, I convinced myself that I needed to reward myself for sticking with it and completing it. While an international trip was not on my list of things I thought up of for the celebration (it was more along the lines of a celebratory dinner at a nice restaurant with a few glasses of wine), I sold myself on the idea, as I was intoxicated by Mr. Mysterious’ siren song. I deserve!

Let me touch on some of the things I had the good fortune of having and utilizing in this prep time, leading up to the actual flight dates. Remember, planning had started a whole 6 months before, so I had allotted time for procrastination and plan changes. We’ll discuss Google Flights, using a calendar in a specific way, and what I plan to do.

I’m on a tight budget, and so my main issue was allocating my limited resources in the best way possible to be able to cover every essential. Before the ghosting situation, my main expenses were the plane tickets, and spending money (Mr. Mysterious gallantly offered to handle the accommodation costs). Google Flights had come in CLUTCH! The site has a calendar to see when the cheapest flights were, compared by dates, as well as the option to track flights’ price changes. AS I had already outlined the PERFECT travel dates, I just scrolled down to the dates, and lo and behold, the prices I saw were among the cheapest for the month. I had used the price tracking  option, as I started accumulating funds for the purchase of the ticket. Things were chugging along well! No reason why something would go off-kilter, right? Right??

I remember vividly waking up one morning and seeing that the price of the ticket had become a few hundred dollars more expensive.

My heart dropped. I hadn’t gotten all the money at that time, and it was honestly discouraging to have to stretch my already-stretched budget to accommodate this extra expenditure. Nevertheless, she persisted. I had accumulated my $4k in cash, ready to buy tickets by early February. Sis was READY and DETERMINED. I had listened to a podcast that celebrated doing the Thing that involved one taking a giant step with no going backsies. That Thing for me was spending $4k on a trip. It seems silly and trivial now, but my heart was set on doing the Thing. My dreams were consumed by the fantasy excursions Mr. Mysterious and I were going to experience on this beautiful island. Then another confirmation that I was supposed to go on this trip - the airline I was planning to go with had a Valentine’s day sale:

This was it, yall. I was going to Jamaica. This was the sign from God I needed. And I didn’t even see it, it was Mr. Mysterious who sent me a screenshot from his IG feed. My heart sang for that entire week. I was going to Jamaica! I did the Thing, and bought my tickets on Valentine’s Day!

Going on in the background of all this was my 12-week planning on Notion. I had counted 12 weeks into the future from the week I decided to go in mid-December, and created a calendar with a task to complete for each week. These tasks included making a list of locations to visit when we got there, making lists of things to pack, things that I need to have organized before and during the trip, etc. This gave me the time I required to do any future-based thinking, grouped neatly into manageable segments so I wouldn’t feel overwhelmed when I sat and thought about things. I chose Notion simply because I had previous experience using the calendar when I was planning out semester tasks and due dates, and I had always found it to be very easy to use. Plus, you could decorate it. I had embraced my full “speak it into existence” self, and put up pictures and affirmations - a virtual vision board, if you will. Also, this 12-week spread would give me a couple ‘free’ weeks before the actual trip, instead of being exact with the timing. Maybe God knew what He was guiding me to do, cuz with this change in the plan, I would need some extra time to sort stuff out.

To be honest, I still don’t believe that Mr. Mysterious ghosted me. I keep oscillating between the reasoning that he probably has something major going on in his life and needs some time to himself, and the Bad Bitch alter-ego, looking down at him with a upturned nose, lumping him with all the other fuckboys I had the unfortunate luck of meeting and interacting with. The insecure baby girl inside of me has so many questions, mainly if I had done something wrong, but if I am to take my mental health and self-confidence journey seriously, I have to be okay with whatever happens around me, regardless of whether it is positive or negative in my perception. When I start overthinking about it, I stop and visualize myself being a boat in the middle of a vast ocean, in a thunderous storm. Waves as tall as houses are rocking me side to side, up and down, but I still stay afloat, above the waves. I stay confident that this storm will end, and I will complete the journey I planned to, in one piece. I am confident in God’s plan; when thing don’t go my way I stress a lil bit, then release my hold on the outcome I wanted, knowing better will come.

We have reached the point where we discuss the now. Yes, I lied about not being stressed or pressed. I am very much stressing and pressing. I now face some nail-biting, belly-hurting decisions. Best believe that I am not making light of the situation. I know it is so much more dangerous to be a female solo traveler. The decisions I choose to make have unknown consequences and repercussions that I have no clue is in my future. The travel blogs I’ve read seem to gloss over this fact, varnishing it with pretty titles such as “Do’s and Don’ts To Keep You Safe”, maybe because it is an ugly truth that danger is lurking no matter where you go.

Maybe I really do need the time away from the usual routine to view my life through fresh, new eyes. Maybe this really is the Thing I need to start off the rest of my life with. God knows I’ve been feeling hamster-wheel-y for the past few months. Maybe this will be the worst thing I will have ever done, a complete waste of money and time. Regardless of what the outcome is, if I am to experience it, I will. Being adaptable to change, instead of resistant to it may very well be the lesson I have to learn from this experience.

As of now, the most immediate pivot I have to make is that I have to tack on a few extra hundred US to cover Airbnb accommodations for the entire week, as well as more spending money as I have no ‘safety net’ in Mr. Mysterious anymore, per se. As I type this, I remember a quote I saw recently:

And with that, I bid you adieu. I will post an update when I get closer to The Date. Thanks for sticking with my dramatic ass till the end. I would LOVE to hear any tips for beginner solo traveling, and comment with more places that I can visit in Jamaica. I appreciate your love and support!

Kisses,

S.

is bernie sanders pro-israel as of october 2023

Ok so I saw this tweet from Michael Tracey (a journalist who is both right wing and left wing at the same time according to my google searches - mind you i am literally southeast asian. i do not know these people).

This tweet claims Bernie Sanders (someone I rooted for president in 2016 and 2020- damn 2016 was 7 years ago... - because all the cool guys I follow on Twitter like him. and also he is anti-establishment and a guy who has a clothes hanger chair. from the news that I saw about him)

In the extended youtube cut released by Senator Bernie Sanders, he says Israel has a right to defend themselves against Hamas quoting "the youths killed in a dance party and the babies killed". But says also that this anger should not be taken on the Palestinians because half of them are children.

And now people on Twitter are quoting this saying ohhh I'm so disappointed in him, we should never trust politicians, what do you expect from a jewish-american guy who stayed in israel for a few years. That last statement I had to look up.

So yes, he is Jewish-American, and yes, he stayed in a commune in Israel in the 60s.

This is the commune he went to, so yeah that's Israel:

And then the reply to the tweet: He also voted for it yesterday. His crocodile tears mean nothing. I'm so mad about that tweet. What do you mean by that? What did he vote for? You can't just drop that bomb and not add context!

Fortunately I calmed down and clicked on her page. "He voted for it yesterday"- was referring to all US senators voting to pass resolution in support of Israel.

I understand her disappointment (you should not vote to support Israel, if you're against Israel bombing Palestinians, and Sanders is against that. Even if you're Jewish, as lots of Jewish-American people have been speaking out against Israel, and Bernie should not have voted for that, if he really is against Israel bombing Palestine. )

I also understand why Bernie would vote for a resolution supporting Israel (for one he lived there + he's an old Jewish American, I think older people would find it harder to disavow Israel).

The resolution in question is linked here as an article (mind you, on a SENATOR'S HOMEPAGE, news articles did not link to it, not even the pro-Israel ones) and pdf from another US Senator's page here. (with the additional clause that "it should not be in any way be viewed as authorization for use of military force in Israel or Gaza")

This is what the resolution that Bernie voted "Yes" on says:

Basically it says, yes we support Israel's right to defend itself against Hamas (without acknowledging what Israel may have done to build up Hamas). It is lacking. And Bernie Sanders, known progressive US politician worldwide, voted for it along with everyone present (2 Democrats and 1 Republican was absent)

So am I disappointed in Bernie? Yes, somewhat. Do I still root for him? Yes, somehow.

Maybe I'm not yet ready to accept that he is a politician. I'll just look at him with a side-eye. Idk. I think I need to read more to decide. Why should I care? Because US policies affect everybody? Because I'm on Twitter all the time and hear about how US politics is shitty and now I feel like I have to have an opinion on it too because oh no what if I accidentally retweet a post that if I study further is actually not good? Why do I have to be right all the time on the Internet? Why do tweets go viral when all these thought processes, nuances, and research (which are still not enough to cover the whole topic), is not enough to fit in 140 characters??

And why did Twitter have to be the site where you can BOTH immediately interact with ideas and people AND have these limited takes go viral? And idk I'm just rambling now.

Mind you he is 82 years old! The US (still a global superpower) should not depend on 80-year old men to lead progressive movements in the senate! Yall need younger people! AOC is 34 years old! We need more 34 year olds in the senate!

Photography and Music (Kodoku's Lilacs, The Life of a Flowstar, No. 11)

Damn, it's been 10 days since my bday, and 356 days left until I'm no longer a child. Well, at least physically, I feel like I'll still be a child inside, not like a man child tho, just playful and stuff. Sucks that I never really got the chance to do that outside of school tho, I'm too much of a shy person to even tell my parents about my friends. But it's okay, I still got them om Snapchat and even if I don't talk to them, I got two things that I use to help me:

Photography and Music

Two different things I found that I truly love. You don't have to speak to make music (if you make beats or other stuff) or photography, but if you do it right, they can both mix together well. Whether it be a Japanese photo with pink trees and an ambient track with harps in it is playing, or if there's a inverted color volcano that has something like lean coming out of it with women and rappers and drugs around it as a cover art playing some Trap-A-Holics, with the photo in the background can help the mood, and I've heard several tracks that have the perfect feel of the thumbnail.

I'll talk about the harder stuff. I listen to rappers like Playboi Carti, SpaceGhostPurrp, and XXXTENTACION that have some pretty hard songs and hard cover arts, and I'll drop one example per artis. Playboi Carti with For My Set, the blue wavey cover art firs with that vaportrap like beat and atmosphere and Carti's flow. Purrp with his project, Blackland Radio 2, the beats aren't exactly what you were here with popping off rappers then (2016), but the atmosphere surrounding them stay trap and dark, especially with the cover art having what looks to be a devil's shadow over a fire. And finally X, rest in peace, with his song Run Up On Me, that cover art, even if it's so simple with a dark red color, it fits imo because it has a blood color and red usually means rage, and that song is truly hard.

Now that we're getting to the softer side, I'd like to talk about a game that has helped me late 2021 to now with its OSTs, it's a game called Yume Nikki, more so its fangame, Yume 2kki. Yume Nikki is about you exploring a girl's dreams, walking around different places and collecting effects, no story. Now that may sound boring, but if you appreciate art, you'd like the game, although it can be dark at times. Usually, if you were to play those games, you have to download them with a specific player for them, but there's websites that host the game for free, and that can help with people who can't download them on certain devices like chromebooks.

What Yume 2kki helps me appreciate, is the art around it. The worlds, music, and the atmosphere in general. The worlds can be dark like that one city with that dark piano track playing (that's how I discovered the game cause of some video about fears), to a happier, more calmer side of atmospheres and music, and there's so much worlds to explore, like a thousand of them because creators around the world have worked on it, yet so underrated. I think my favorite track from Yume 2kki is the ceiling reversed, that track has helped me calm down in situations where I had panic like feelings, it's therapeutic in a way that just stands out from others. And don't forget, appreciate the original game, Yume Nikki too!

Well, I'm done for tonight! I feel a lil more happier compared to last night, I felt like there wasn't anything in me, not even motivation when I laid in bed. I'm gonna try to remember and start writing these in the beginning of the days, and listen to Yume 2kki again, it's been a minute. Anyways, hope yall have a good night, happy memorial day.

Sincerely, Kodoku.

*comes drinking the third coke of this fine mornin*

the revival wasnt that bad. It had its lows but is still fun. And some great highs. The actors were wonderful and I adore some changes.

cats has like two definitive plot points and saying a character was ruined by the revival is putting a little too much hcing into it. Every production is insanely different.

every portrayal of every character in every production is insanely different, and equating the stage revival to the 98 films is incredibly unfair. Go ahead and try to equate Jack Ribaldi's Munkustrap to Armin Kahl's, Michael Gruber's or Peter Bishop's.

that being said, the changes in the *structure* do affect the characters. Gus and Munkustrap are the best example with Pekes and Pollicles in the revival.

the choreography is different as fuck, and you have to recognize it as such. You can like it or dislike it. But equating them is plain wrong. And unfair

(In my personal view the original is far the better, but the revival has some *awesome* bits and I adore it)

TLDR: yeah, lets critic 2016. Lets analyse it. But stop comparing it to 98 good lord.

*Throws my coke away*

[burninlovebutler]

GAH i didn't wanna do this bc im a gemini & i talk a lot if im unsupervised lol BUT YALL WERE POSTIN SOME SAPPY SHIT SO I WANTED TO JOIN (so sorry this is gonna be so long i apologize in advance)

this wasn't initially the road i was gonna take while talking about this but ofc if u read any of my writing or know me in any capacity, it shouldn't surprise you that we're getting sad lol

as i stood next to my partner watching the midnight fireworks last night, i had a fleeting thought -

16 year old me didn't think i'd still be here at 26 -

i didn't expect to still be on this earth in 2023

when i was around that age my home life was really shitty and abusive and lonely and my only saving grace at the time was the family i found within the one direction/5sos fandom. there were so many times then that my fandom friends saved me, literally.

i wouldn't be here today without them.

i stopped being in fandoms around 2016 and while i still have MANY long term close friends from that time, we all have gone our separate ways interest wise.

I didn't realize just how much i missed being a part of a community until i joined tumblr again. the austin/elvis fandom welcomed me with open arms & filled me with that same youthful joy and connection as i had when i was 16. and even BETTER bc this fandom has blown me away with how kind and gentle and loving it is

point is - i’m grateful that i AM still here, that i’ve been here long enough to meet you and experience this amazing fandom.

it's insane to me to think i would've never met some of the brightest stars of my days without walking into that theater that day. my year would've been so empty, lonely and sad without you all, so thank you all from the bottom of my cold lil heart - you all showed up in my life when i needed u the most

(something weird about this 1D -> Elvis/Aus pipeline is that when i went back to see the day i saw the movie the first time it was on July 23, aka the 1D anniversary 👀 lil weird)

i initially made this blog solely for my fanfic but i'm glad i branched out - though i still wanted to take the time to anyone who's interacted w my writings, even if it was just help with plot or moodboards. my heart skips a beat when my writing is a point of conversation.

thank you to the beauties who grace my dash everyday, even if we don't talk often 💖

@feverkitten @p-oolshark @pearlparty @avengen @presleys @mrsniallhoran505 @missmaywemeetagain @marooosa @eliseinmemphis @elvisabutler @lovininapinkcadillac @aconflagrationofmyown @austinsmutler @heartbrake-hotel @dre6ming @flwrs4aust @rosaminny @presleysdarling @woundmetender @rainydayz101 @ggwritesstuff @golden-kiwis @lattedreamer @weak-aesthetic @bcofl0ve

and of course to my almost daily babes, my days would be so empty without you all and my heart would be so deflated - i never thought i'd end up with a group like this

@succsessions @lllsaslll @cryingabtab @elvisfatass @loving-elvis @nora-nexus-34 @lavenderelvis @luluthesandgoose @powerofelvis @bisexualwvtson @samfangirls @lindszeppelin @infatuatedharleys @ab4eva @sagesolsticewrites @slowsweetlove @areacodefan @jelliedonut @steph-speaks @star-shard @foreverdolly @purejasmine @oh-my-front-door

and how could i ever forget the two that really roped me in @karamelcoveredolicity @troubleinapinksuit - even though it was through war, violence & lawsuits (lol) that our love was carved from, it is the most magical. i am so honored and so grateful to call you friends

one of my biggest goals for 2022 was to make new friends - ones who are reliable, kind, like-minded, supportive, generous, loving - because i was feeling so lonely & unloved, and to my surprise this goal was met ABUNDANTLY by you all, i really can not stress how much you all mean to me

extra special shout out to @bisexualwvtson for setting up the christmas card exchange, it was probably my favorite part of this holiday season - those cards made my whole christmas and i will cherish them forever

i love you all so much its DISGUSTING how much i love you - i don’t know how i would’ve made it through this year without you all - and it makes me so fucking sad when i think about all the memories that wouldn’t have happened without austin/elvis/you guys - it is because of you all that i have some of the best and happiest memories of this year, thank you ❤️

i hope that we are together for a long long time - i know that i am, i’m here for the long haul 💗 pls be in the nursing home with me breaking hips to Elvis songs

love, mel xx

(I APOLOGIZE IF IVE MISSED ANYONE I TRIED MY BEST TO REMEMBER EVERYTHING MY BRAIN IS TRASH SO IM SO SORRY PLS DONT BE OFFENDED IF I MISSED U I LOVE U)

Rumblings

Alright, I think I'm gonna stay out of any conversation that has to do with the boys' body from now on. It aggravates me.

But i am gonna say I do blame a portion of the fandom for holding them to such high toxic beauty standards.

I see here a very sexy and beautiful woman. But apparently people sent her death threats for her size.

If music is what they selling why the fuck does their looks matter.

I blame the entire industry and the labels who produce these idols for warping their mentality and creating false standards for these artists to live by. They've brainwashed them into believing their talents aren't enough, that their hardwork isn't enough.

Maybe it's time someone dismantled that whole machinery rather than have these artists conform to it. IT'S EXHAUSTING.

I love that the new up and coming LBGTQ youth in the industry aren't letting the machine control them. Shout out to all the plus size idols who give Zero fucks about the conservatism within Kpop. I stand with them.

And I know people say Male idols have it easy than Female idols but the pressure to me is the same- people just hate women and so that exarcabates it. Cough cough.

In his case, i don't know if I said it here or somewhere else but right before it was announced he was gonna go for surgery a lot of people had started pointing out how much weight he had been putting on and a few days later Hybe issued a statement on his shoulder injury. Coincidence?

I don't want to speculate on whether his health issues was what was impacting his weight but I remember feeling very suspicious of Hybe and swore to myself if he came back all skinny and liposuctioned that I was going to start a fight square up hybe.

I can blame the fans all I want but the company is equally to be blamed for putting them on these unnecessary diets.

And i know some said, well they are not westerners and we cannot hold them to the same standards of body issues dysmorphia and diet issues etc.

Soooooooooooo they are Asians so they can't suffer from body dysmorphia???? I'm blinking slowly.

"After nearly five years of training with Korean entertainment agency WM Entertainment, JinE (full name Shin Hyejin) debuted in 2015 as a member of the impressive rookie act Oh My Girl whose sophomore single, "Closer," was named one of the best K-pop songs of the year by Billboard. While promoting "Closer," JinE shared an initial diagnosis of anorexia.

The petite, 5'3" star shared she lost between 17 to 20 pounds as the group dieted together for promotions -- a common practice among K-pop groups who want to look their best as they appear on cameras and social media at all hours of the day, but also as a response to Korean society's expectations for idols to be thin and attractive. JinE shared that she developed vomiting symptoms and esophagitis, and despite needing hospital care, the singer assured fans she was healthy. 2016 brought three more EP releases and increased visibility for Oh My Girl, but the 22-year-old was indefinitely pulled from promoting with the group after her symptoms returned. Then last month, WM and JinE announced she would leave the group and company, with the star expressing gratitude for the support she received but the desire for a different lifestyle."

There's Jimin who almost went crazy from the abuse and gaslighting she suffered in her band and at the hand of her bandmates.

Don't let me go on to the suicide rights. Being of a different culture don't mean they don't suffer from these things too. If anything i think they suffer the most.

Park JM mentioned how he worked out for two years, lost 7kg after dieting because his body had become too big from all that workout, and how he'd pass out during choreo because he just didn't have the strength to go on.

Yall heard him come to defend Jk when people called him fat because his arms were too big. He told them JK wasn't fat but that it was muscles.

When people criticized JK for the long hair he and one other member jumped to his defense saying he they were gonna grow out their hairs too or something a long those lines.

There's been constant pressure for him to fix his teeth, muscle up and he's not given into that pressure- until recently.

Why he's doing is none of my business. Loose weight gain weight I think that's his prerogative.

Imagine bullying Hoseok out of his own Vlive, asking him to leave the group, calling Namjoon ugly- SO WHAT?? WHAT SHOULD THEY DO ABOUT IT? REALLY WHAT?

People demand a lot from these boys- cut your hair, don't get tattoos, black hair, no pink, no blue, fuck just wear white, gain weight, lose weight, build muscles, don't build muscles- so much so that everything they do they have the fans at the back of their minds.

Imagine being scared to get tattoos because fans will hate you- as Suga warned Kook. Imagine working in an environment where you constantly fear of losing your job and so you beat yourself up at the least mistake and strive for perfection.

Imagine the actual disrespect when you aren't told that your own music will be featured in a big time movie and yet someone had the audacity to slip in here to tell me I was fake loving and not being happy for him.

You almost can tell who is new in here due for a rude awakening and yet they are the loudest.

Personally, I think they are all beautiful just the way they are. Fuck Kpop I'm busting my faves out if I can.

To answer your question, I think Suga has a lot on his hands to fuss over how perfect his hair hangs over his forehead. I'm more grateful he came back to us as quickly as he did after Surgery. I won't attribute any changes in him to his Surgery because then that leaves no room for him to be human and deal with fluctuating body weights etc.

We shouldn't expect perfection from them all the time. Especially as sometimes the makeup they wear changes, lighting and all these other elements that come together to create an illusion of a perfect idol changes.

So to you they might not look as nice as compared to before in a moment when in reality all that has changed is their makeup application technique.

As far as their looks go, they could look like 7 fat thors and I would still think they are revolutionary

It's 2021, a lot of barriers are being broken, new standards of beauty are being set, people are embracing themselves and loving themselves. Let's pay it forward.

Here's dark Tae to lighten up your day

I see Jimin and JK aren't the only ones into lip rings😏 hashtag Vminkook.

I think I've answered a lot of questions today. I'm gonna take a break now.

Also I've been meaning to say this, thank you to anyone who was there for me when i was going through stuff. Means a lot to me☺💜

[doubleddenden]

You know, after how much love my post from September got for analyzing the timeline, I thought maybe I'd have some more material for the literal last week of 2021

Other than personal stuff things seem pretty normal. I mean there's some stuff but nothing absolutely as outlandish as horse meds.

But I'll try to scrap some stuff together

Idris Elba is Knuckles the Echidna. We knew that from an announcement, but we all saw a trailer for the second Sonic movie and he was actually Knuckles. It wasn't a prank. Man apparently was so excited he did a ton of research for the role. Tails is there too I guess.

Putt Putt and Freddie Fish are coming to the Switch. I am 5 again

Prince of Bel-Air is relevant again. Shit what year is it

YouTube took away the ability to see dislikes, benefitting their advertisers and corporate accounts and literally nobody else. Luckily you can either install an extension that let's you see it anyway, or just down vote anyway to make an intern cry privately

There's several BoTW style games in the works coming next year. Pokémon Legends Arceus, Sonic Frontiers. A couple of indie titles. Craziest one is this small title known as, get this, Breath of the Wild ***2***. Crazy shit. Maybe it'll actually come out this year

Yall know that giant Swedish goat thing that people used to set on fire? It hadn't been burned down since 2016 due to increased security measures. Well a MAD LAD FUCKIN DID IT AND WE GOT A BURNED ASS GOAT. Maybe the timeline will stabilize now.

Matrix released a new movie again. Apparently it sucks, like it's 2 other sequels. But Keanu Reeves is still a handsome man with a heart of gold, so we'll let it slide.

Matrix also released a pretty cool tech demo for Unreal Engine 5 on PS5. Shit looks realistic af and honestly is more hype than the movie. If you're one of the 10 people in the world that actually owns one, great!

Bleach released its teaser for the Thousand Year Blood War arc. Maybe we won't have to wait 1000 years for the arc to actually finish before breaking off into another filler arc

Speaking of 1000 years, Queen Elizabeth seems to "not be doing well." Let's see if it's legit or if there's going to be a Weekend at Bernie's scenario

Facebook is now META and is pushing for VR type stuff. This is very useful to all the Boomers that use FB and definitely know how to use technology without the help of their kids and grandkids on tiktok abd twitter. Now they can receive medical and political misinformation by guys pretending to be catgirls with giant honkers, jiggling in real time! Gib me ur cwedit cawd infurmation, uwu

Companies are still upset people are working in the comfort of their own homes and sitting countless hours typing on a computer and making calls, and still aren't shutting up about wanting them to come to the office in awful traffic with awful gas prices with awful coworkers in the middle of a pandemic to sit countless hours typing on a computer and make phone calls

Spider-Man No Way Home is out I guess. BUT YO WE GOT A SICK TRAILER FOR INTO THE SPIDER VERSE 2! PART 1!!!

And of course, Apple is prodding into Tumblr's business again with an extensive list of tags that are going to be forbidden on their iTunes app. These include tags such as "girl", "mental illness", "racism", and of course, "MILF." Of course, in true Tumblr fashion, users found a workaround by either using Tumblr in a web browser, or literally owning anything but an overpriced Apple product that already has an expiration date the moment it leaves a factory. But if I were an iPhone owner, I would be very sad that now I would have to hop over to Reddit to find literally hundreds of subreddits dedicated to milfs, anime tiddies, and specifically anime milfs and tiddies, and if i wanted to see racism, I would be forced to log into FB again to see how my high-school classmates are doing. A tragedy, I tell you. Ain't leaving tho. No siree.

New Year. Won't say Happy because we all know that's a trap. Won't say bad either because that was taken literally this year too. So have yourselves a year.

Mystic Messenger Saeran’s AE Thoughts (.......And Prayers..) #Spoilerz

Hello, I just finished Saeran’s after ending and I have a lot of things to say and I am going to write it down while I'm still all keyed up about it.

First of all… Please DO NOT ask me how much money I spent to finish this as fast as I did…. I’m grown but my bank account is certainly going to have a good ole fashioned CHUCKLE at this….. It’s been a long quarantine I deserve a lil happiness as a treat methinks!

I have been playing this absolutely insane game since I think 2016? When I first started playing the deep routes had JUST come out I think? And I was just finishing up high school and am now a college grad...lmao

I’ve played all routes at least once except Jaehee but i’ve seen walkthroughs of her route (I’ve heard it makes you hate Jumin and he’s my favorite so um. hehe). V’s and Saeran’s routes I found to be so emotionally intense and just….a lot and I've been waiting a long ass god damn time for this after ending okay…. I would theorize and make up an ending in my head but i’m no writer so it was hard to figure out lol. I’m a Jumin stan mostly but I love everybody and yeah I should probably play that jumin dlc too but I need like a DAY to recover from Saeran’s AE. Enough about me HERE are my thoughts on it overall

Major Saeran AE Spoilers under da cut!

Can we please discuss V showing up to the C+R conference room with basically chloroform and made everybody Pass Out like??? I was alone in my room at like midnight just SCREAMING at my phone???? And the creepy ass CG ???? It’s like that gif of sarah paulson from ahs being like “I put arsenic in the wine….and the pasta”

Anyway I screamed at V a lot during this process!!

Loved RFA being sweet and kind to saeran (before V fucking drugged them…)

This is such common V behavior ��I have to do it all myself...there’s no other way..” GIRL SHUT UPPP You do this every route....

SO many CG’s and I enjoy them a lot

Saeran’s sprite looks a little TOO crisp compared to everyone else but maybe its a glitch??? V next to him is in 480p while saeran is like 1080p

Hearing both Saeran and Saeyoung missing the other brother the whole time??? PAIN. All my homies know is PAIN

BOSS and his V for Vendetta ass guy fawkes mask??? I literally yelled “this game is TERRIBLE!!” several times at my phone

Their dad is so>??????? When he was sitting on the couch with saeyoung in that one CG while simultaneously telling him to kill himself?????????? Maybe chairman han is actually the best dad in this game somehow

When V and Rika were like we’re back together teehee teehee okay pack it up bonnie and clyde ..

When chairman han calls u and says hes jealous of u and saeran…..HUH????? I’m calling HR

When they go to the apartment and see boss and vanderwood and poor saeyoung is sitting there seeing his brother for the first time in years i wanted to D word sooooo bad like PAIN...PAIN….

Can we HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT JUMIN HAN BEING THE BEST CHARACTER IN THE GAME AND HE LOST EVERYTHING IN THIS AE……. he just took the blame and moved on jumin what the hell….. I love him so much r we serious? He watched his 2 closest friends betray him in the worst way and found out abt how Rika abused Saeyoung and Saeran???? I felt just AWFUL. Terrible ...Terrible….

Rika’s change in demeanor from Saeran's actual route is certainly a Choice. I find her much more bearable this time around and unfortunately i think I was too nice to her and ended up with a bad end LMFAO

I was happy to see Saeran stand up for himself and become stronger and confident. You go king!

The CG of Yoosung laying in Zen’s lap is everything to me…

HOWEVER YUP I sure did get a bad ending and I was so mad fdsafdskfdhsf ! (I would be happy to clarify how I got the good one the second time.) MAKE SURE To SAVE EARLY in days 2 and 3 bc the branches on day 4 is where the bad end will show up. For me it was the first day 4 chat and then a story mode titled “SAVIOR”.... If you see that RUN FOR THE HILLS!!

I was so mad! But I had saved in day 2 and replayed and MANAGED to get good end

I’m obsessed with everyone calling V and Rika “that psychotic couple” like…..its true its true…

No those two are so toxic… V’s route was torture watching them go on and on about the sun like yo can yall just call each other babe like normal people.

I respect straight people but not V and RIka that shit was just wrong… Straight marriage was a mistake

Oh lord i also FULLY Forgot Rika killed the twins’ mother…. Yeah that scene was um Certainly a lot but it needed to happen eventually

Like it’s good they know but damn that storyline is just so bleak

I think it was satisfying TO A DEGREE….To see Rika understand where she was wrong, why she was wrong, fess up and even APOLOGIZE! I was very surprised.

Saeran and Saeyoung are Certainly twins with the amount that those two self sacrifice in every route MY GOD…..

The scene with Jumin talking to his father and the other scene of him praying oh my god I cannot tell you how happy I was to see him begin to understand and address his own feelings in a route that was not his own. My main problem with Jumin’s route has always been the trapping MC in his penthouse aspect.. This way Jumin understands love and emotions without being overly possessive !!! YAY also loved seeing him be on good terms with his dad who was surprisingly profound

That last Story mode was Really a Lot…. and Strange things occurred which I will get into in just a minute

Jumin becoming a politician is so funny but ngl … i see it.

Yoosung going to france to study pastries ok king I see u! (it made more sense to me than the vet thing anyway)

Lastly Zen FURRY ERA

MY BEEF With the AE

I was happy with how they handled it for the most part. I think Cheritz heard our feedback about V’s after ending and was like okay….let’s try something different

HOWEVER

Saeran…. Sweet kind saeran… IS SO AFFECTIONATE HAHA….

He must have said I love you like 300 times…..very mushy gushy flowery language...and maybe that’s just his personality but for me it was like eating cake with buttercream cake. It means well, but god damn is it sugary and going to cause a stomach ache later.

He was just… SO MUCH! SO forward and ON all the time in his affections. I honestly felt kind of smothered and by day 3 and 4 I was sooooo over all the compliments… King you’ve come a very long way, but ur still putting MC on a pedestal and probably need to see a therapist.

Nextly….Rika and V….. Naw that knock out gas really ...that hurt lol. Coming from “I would do anything to protect RFA” V? Idk like…. EYE felt betrayed reading that. It was just hurtful. I can’t even imagine how the members would have felt as they were passing out. It was just so cruel. I suppose I understand why but like?? Just TERRIBLE

Them being in cahoots with the agency and the prime minister..HUH??? Also too much

V just felt so irresponsible like I do understand that he ended up in a weird web of secrets that’s hard to untangle but he’s so fucking stubborn he’s SO stubborn it makes me insane. Like sir… It seems like in other routes he wanted to try to protect Rika and the RFA.. But in this AE it seems more to me that he was like yeah i’m protecting Rika and That’s It… so fucking hurtful to me. Both of y’all apologize ESPECIALLY to the twins and Jumin..

The forgiveness thing…… Okay so I think some people will not like that Saeran decided to “forgive” the people who hurt him (Rika, V, Saejoong, his mother). I would point out that I actually think this was approached somewhat well. He says at one point that he doesn’t think they’re good or bad, just people. I think he sounded mature and like this was the way for him personally to accomplish his healing process. Would I have loved for Saeran to flip V and Rika off and kick Saejoong off a cliff? Yea I really would. But like…. If that’s what HE needs to do to heal then who am I to judge?

HOWEVER…. Everything Eye just said goes out the window when the scenes at the end with Saejoong come up… I was PERPLEXED. Like why did he HUG his deranged father who just kicked the shit out of him??? Also all the chat options that MC has with him r like blah blah you’re like this because no one loves you were so corny to me LMFAOOOO?

AND WHEN HE WAS IN THE ROOM LATER WITH SAERAN… i’m sorry but if that were me I would have called a nurse to deck his ass. Cool he turned himself in YOU SUCK SOOOO BAD AND I NEVER WANT YOU TO COME NEAR SAEYOUNG AND SAERAN AGAIN THANKS.

*scratches ass* I wish I got to see saeyoung and saeran finally sit down and have that first conversation after a long time and hug CG but the ending was fine I GUESS….. I dont care about ROMANCE I want those boys to be happy brothers together

Anyway that was really emotionally exhausting but I fr think I got it out of my system after literal years… And I can rest in peace knowing the choi twins are happy. THATS ALL I WANTED TO KNOW!!!!

Give us the Donatellos!

Donnie is my favorite so Imma be super biased on this one. Maybe I like smart guys or maybe purple is my favorite color, you’ll never know!

Up first, the og ‘hehe turgle’

Donatello (1987)

Yeah I’m sorry for making this 

First of all, not the biggest fan of his voice. It has a bit of a whiny quality to it, and I’m not about all that jazz. His gismo’s look pretty lame a lot of the times, either it’s a grey box with some buttons, dials and flashing lights or looks like it was pulled directly from Lost in Space. Still a cute design but he felt pretty bland and seemed to be used for plot convenience most of the time. To put it simply, he was cute and essential but kinda bland. I’m always really harsh on this version because it’s so painfully dated and cheesy, which ain’t my cup of tea, but what can I say be hehe turgle.

5/10

I had a crush on this Donnie so you know that this is not remotely close to a fair rating but eh, I love him and yall do too

Don (2003)

His voice, such a huge improvement. I’m really sound-oriented and I often like to play a game of ‘I’ve heard the VA before, but which role?’ when I watch cartoons and I don’t mean to brag, but I’m pretty good at it. So when I heard that soft, caring voice, ten year old me was head over heels. Which is one quality I love about him. His heart is so huge, like I can think back to a bunch of side characters and most of them were introduced through Don helping or knowing them. The Atlantians and the homeless in the show owe so much to Don, but he goes out of his way to make sure that they are alright. In the last season (which everyone hated but I actually really liked so fuck me I guess), Splinter is lost into tiny pieces across the web and Don blames himself and goes without sleep and food for days to bring him back. It broke my heart, and I’m pretty sure a lot of others, to see him like that.

On a lighter note, I vaguely remember this one scene where the triceration dude is like ‘you did this!’ and Don’s like ‘I did? Good for me then.’ and had a very pleased grin on his face right after. I don’t know why, but that killed me. Bless Don and his rare, but excellent, comebacks.

He really does so much and there were quite a few episodes focused on him. He also had quite a bit of character development, not as much as Leo, but whoever gets any more development whatsoever besides Leo?

I love him he’s amazing protect him/10

Next up is the Donnie that helped me love my old gap tooth.

Donnie (2012)

Voiced by the very talented Rob Paulson, this Donnie goes back and forth from really great character to eh. The whole April thing was just kinda strange to me and I don’t really think it added anything other than some interesting Casey and Donnie banter. His crush was really strong the first two seasons and came off as stalkerish almost. Although I’m guilty of having a picture of a crush as my lock screen once as well, so I can’t judge that much. I really liked that they actually addressed this when Bigfoot had a crush on Donnie and he realized how April felt. Yeah, that episode was weird and just didn’t make any sense, but it really helped Donnie gain a new perspective and made him go from super crush to (mostly) hidden pining. He has a nice design as well, especially with the gap tooth. I used to have one and was really embarrassed of it but whenever I saw that Donnie had one, I thought it looked neat and I started to see myself in a more positive light. It’s closed up now, but I can still spray water between the little bit that’s left as a parlor trick. But seriously, what the FUCK was up with Don visiososoos whatever tf his name I I don’t understnad my tiny brain don’t understand why my purple boy tried to kill this dude who looked like he should’ve been wearing a red jumpsuit in the background of a pixar robot love story. Anyway, my tall gap tooth son, ily.

7/10

Then, the barely changed but fantastic

Donnie (Heroes in a Half Shell: Blast to the Past)

Baby but Bastard at the same time purely because of the ‘Anyone who bothers me, ejector seat button’s right there’ line. 

10/10

Now this version has one of my favorite designs out of all the Donatello’s!

Donatello (2014/2016)

They put a lot of thought into his design psychically, the long body, the near-constant look of surprise and curiosity in his features, the gadgets made of common objects, the wraps on his arms, I would love to be able to think of and make those kinds of details! It was all really well thought out and he stood out since he wasn’t as bulky as the rest of the turtles. I really like the little lines and the actor did a fantastic job on the delivery and really made the character come to life. Some favorites: ‘Ohmygod, they have guns’, the little awed, snorty chuckle when he flips a car over with his bo staff, ‘doitdoitoitdoit im not gonna stop til you do it doditdoit’ and when he straight up yeets himself out of a plane. He has a genuine curiosity in everything he does and I think he might be my favorite version. It’s hard to choose when it comes to Donnie because he varies so wildly. But for detail, voice and writing alone, definitely the 2014 Donnie.

8.5/10

Next up is God himself

Donnie (2018)

Chaotic as all hell, like I can’t think of a more chaotic character from ANY of the versions other than this Donnie. I have a lot of thoughts about his character in general, from design, to psychology and complexes. First and foremost, Donnie is a softshell turtle, meaning he has a DOPE battle shell and overall looks pretty damn neat. Although, I think that just the fact he’s biologically weaker has caused him to put up a lot of boundaries between him and his family and friends. He can’t be incredibly strong like Raph, agile like Leo or fast like Mikey and even though he brags about being smart, he feels almost beneath his brothers and strives to outdo them in any way he can. He wants to show them that he’s just as, if not more so, talented and feels overlooked because his inventions become ‘too smart’ or ‘too over the top’ and even the ones that work out incredibly well are written off for flashier projects. 

He depends on technology and feels like that's all he has, and (ironically enough) he’s built up a shield around him. He acts confident and narcissistic and has an almost nihilistic outlook, but he’s frustrated and feels inferior and wants validation more than anything. I came up with this theory when I saw the episode Turtle Dega Nights. I know that the scene was meant for Donnie to express how he feels about Splinter lying about the event and believe that he didn’t genuinely want to hang out with his sons, but that kind of thing feels like it’s been built up over time, like he’s been lied to before about the true meaning behind something. Something like, oh idk, how great his inventions are? Or how helpful he really is? Or how talented he is? Just sayin. Also ngl I might be self projecting a bit, but mmm. Also he has so much purple on him and it’s wayyy more accurate compared to just a purple bandanna bc people who like purple GO ALL OUT. A friend told me this and I thought ‘nah thats not true I like purple’ but then I looked down to find my dyed purple jeans, purple vans and my favorite hoodie, also purple. A really chaotic version but he seriously needs a hug.

9/10

Storytime: One time my friend dressed up as Donnie the same year I was dressing as April O’ Neal and we didn’t even plan it. It was fantastic.

Thank you so much for sending this in! Sorry it’s taking me so long to get around to these! I’m so glad you guys are liking my blog and my opinions!

[youngbugandtonystank]

I absolutely love all of your analyses!!! They are a true gift to the Irondad fandom! THANK YOU! In that regards, have you shared your thoughts before on how Tony's character changed after CW and meeting Peter? I think you have but I don't remember...Anyway, I'd love to see your breakdown of how Tony's changed since 2016. I've been a fan of Tony since the very beginning and in my opinion he is a completely different character since Peter found a place in his life (p1)

(p2) I've never been a shipper but I could clearly see why so many MCU fans were shipping Tony with various other characters. He had that aura of a playboy, a macho, someone sexy, cocky, confident, reckless, etc. Of course, these personas were his masks as he's always been soft and insecure inside but still, Tony acted up to keep his image of a sexy, rich mf. After meeting Peter, this man turned into a dad in no time. I mean, he became a totally different person, responsible and cautious & so on

Hi!

THANK YOU♥ This is so sweet and nice. ILY

He definitely changed a lot after meeting Peter. As a matter of fact, Peter is the reason he wanted to have kids in the first place♥

Look at his history with kids:

Tony in Iron Man 3:

Tony: Please don't tell me there's a 12-year-old kid in the car that I've never met. Maya Hansen: He's 13

Tony:

Tony in Age of Ultron:

I think I pointed out that he was always good with kids in this post but that doesn’t mean he wanted one until he met Peter. 

Tony to Harley: I don't know, later. Hey kid, give me a little space.

Tony to Harley:  Maybe never, relax about it.

Tony to Harley: No idea. I don't care.

Tony to Harley: Yeah. A, saved you first. B, thanks, sort of. And C, if you do someone a solid, don't be a yutz, alright? Just play it cool otherwise you come off grandiose.

Tony to Harley:  What I need is for you to go home, be with your mom, keep your trap shut-- […] We're done here. Move it out the way or I'm going to run you over. Bye kid.

He didn't have that interest in involving himself yet without fear just like he did in Homecoming, here’s an example. The way he disregards Harley’s issues with his absent father in IM3:

Harley Keener: So now you're just going to leave me here, like my dad?

Tony Stark: Yep

Harley Keener:  Well, my mom already left for the diner and dad went to 7-Eleven to get scratchers. I... I guess he won, 'cause that was six years ago.

Tony to Harley: Mm. Which happens, dads leave. No need to be a pussy about it. Here's what I need.

And how he behaves with Peter in HOCO:

Tony to Peter: My dad never really gave me a lot of support... And I’m just trying to break the cycle of shame.

Tony: Nice work in D.C.

Peter: Okay.

Tony to Peter: Okay? God, I sound like my dad.

He puts himself in the position of the father-figure in Peter’s life. He did this since the very beginning. 

He even says this at the end of homecoming:

Credits to: @capntony @tony5tark5ever

In the Iron Man Novelization, Pepper finds framed photos of Tony and his dad. ‘There were no famous people standing next to them, as seemed typically to be the case whenever there were photos of Howard Stark on display. There was nothing posed about these photos: They showed Stark father and son in the midst of working on a variety of automobiles.’

While I don’t support Howard’s relationship with Tony because he was awful to him, the fact that Tony puts Peter in the same regard (as family/father-son dynamic) is pretty telling.

‘If he completed the engine, it would be the finish to the last job that he and his father had ever worked on. It would close a door to his past that he wasn’t ready to shut.’ - Iron Man novelization.

From that, part of me believes that the reason Peter was not ready to be Tony’s successor is not only because he’s obviously just a kid but because he feels like if he steps up to the role, he’s going to have to say goodbye to Tony for real this time. He’s going to close a door he’s not ready to shut. He’s not going to be able to hide those feelings through denial or pass the task to another person to feel like he’s still the kid in the dynamic. 

So, yeah, he did change when he met Peter. He felt a connection with this kid since the beginning:

He adopted him right there lmao

.

I had to go back and watch some scenes from the movies to refresh my memory but yall, was Steve always that annoying in the first Avengers movies?

BTW, I was going to do a youtube compilation of actors, directors, etc talking about irondad, if you guys are interested in that, please tell me♥ 

[yibuo]

UMMM I would love to know what exactly happened with xnine too if you know??

i didn’t know how to answer this without hating on long danni but... that’s not possible when you’re talking about xnine

CORRECT ME IF I’M WRONG IN ANY WAY @ DIMPLES AND CFANS

tldr ceo addicted to producing survival shows realizes boy group is incapable of feeding her fat rabbit because of her OWN mismanagement and throws them away (literally? probably not, maybe, idk)

HOLY SHIT THIS BECAME RLY LONG IM BEGGING KEEP READING TO WORK LO LOL LOL

long danni= wjjw company ceo

wjjw=company that xnine, xz, r1se, etc are under

huo mala: fat company rabbit that WILL give u nightmares goodness gracious thinking about him sends chills down my spine

alright so long danni (ldn i will refer to her) & ee media along w/ tencent and sm made the survival show x-fire... the premise of xfire was that 16 contestants split into two different teams (white and red) and then at the end it would boil down to each team having 4 members and the winning team would debut as a group called xfire...but wait...the group’s name is xnine? so out of red team (peng chuyue, baishu, xiao zhan, xia zhiguang) and white team(wu jiacheng, gu jiacheng, zhao lei, and guo zifan) white team won...and they unofficially debuted as xfire..went abroad to train yadda yadda yadda and then a few months later, TELL ME WHY LONG DANNI DECIDES TO RELEASE POLLS TO LET FANS VOTE IN 5 MEMBERS INTO XFIRE TO CREATE XNINE! ldn PLEASE if u wanted to rig the show you should’ve decided in the beginning what was the point of making the teams and the fans fight against each other...

so yeah xz and crew weren’t actually supposed to debut according to show rules...i mean i’m glad they debuted obviously bc x9 is x9 but ee media and frickin ldn couldve handled this better...like every member except chen molerat is amazing and great but....WHY DIDNT MaNAGEMENT NOT BLATANTLY RIG THEM INTO THE GROUP

but also thank u ldn for also letting us get to know the 4 guys who were added n not chen molerat <3 but like DO UR JOB PROPERLY

anyway the polls were RIGGED obviously thanks ldn what did u expect out of making POLLS, and xiao zhan, peng chuyue, xia zhiguang, yan xujia, and chen z*** were added to the group to create xnine...talk about rigged when chen z*** the molerat lookin turdface misogynist was added... anyway at the time he wasnt known to be problematic but ya the whole rigging thing caused a whole rift esp when x9 debuted bc there were fanwars and death threats initially but xfire did well because it was one of the (if not only) survival shows at that time and x9 debuted w/ a good response etc

then they got moved to wjjw (still owned by ldn thanks ldn) and wjjw is known for hoarding artists and not promoting them (THEY HAVE LIKE 45 ARTISTS BUT WERE FORMED 3 YEARS AGO MAKE IT MAKE SENSE) and not being promoted properly was EXACTLY what happened to xnine. as idols what they needed was music promotions, variety shows, etc stuff to get them as people out there but this genius ldn decided to promote them through stupid zodiac dramas like super star academy (to promote xfire finalists) and oh my emperor (which was an xnine drama). now i haven’t watched OME, but SSA gave me enough brain rot and gunk for me to not watch OME. (the only person who could act was baishu), and the story was SO BAD. nevermind the acting, because the boys weren’t initially slated to be actors, but the story was horrible, girl without superpowers suddenly becomes white cult goddess at the end??? WHAT???????? why didn’t ldn just promote them normally !!!!!! are they an actor group or an idol group???? I LOVE XNINE, THEY ARE TALENTED ARTISTS !!!! and eventually some went into acting (xz, guo zifan, gu jiacheng) BUT WAS THAT THE TIME DLFNJNF and then they just kept getting sent into random dramas and movies as random side characters instead of being able to make music and promote????? i’m sorry i’ve been stuck on using dramas to promote x9 for a while because that’s such a SILLY IDEA *vigorously shakes head* 

ldn knows how to do survival shows but she doesn’t know how to promote her artists thanks ldn. xnine has so much talented, we know xiao zhan is a great singer, but other main vocalists like wu jiacheng, zhao lei, and peng chuyue are amazing as welll, here’s me plugging this video of zl and pcy performing their self-written song on produce camp because it’s the most beautiful thing ever

-oh yeah somewhere in here insert chen molerat getting outed as a pedo misogynist cheater by his gf who still has the audacity to have xnine in his weibo name because xnine starting to get popular gtfo rat lookin ass i WILL barf, when we say ot8 xnine we mean xnine w/o chen toadratass but sometimes ppl think it’s xnine minus xz which is untrue-

they also have talented rappers (gu jiacheng yan xujia) and dancers (xia zhiguang guo zifan) like xia zhiguang can end me with his spinning flying kick thing and i WILL let him 

so YEAH !! TALENT that went to waste because wjjw gave them weird random hiatuses and kept pushing them as actors??? seriously what is with this actor stuff...so that’s why they debuted in 2016 and have very little discography to their name because wjjw just gave up...trying to promote them GOD thank u so much ldn for ur incomptency <3333 xnine had members in diff stages of life (ranging from xz who was born in 91, to yan xujia born in 2001, they were all close tho soo cute) and wjjw really was like nope we’re not gonna try to promote yall’s dreams of becoming singers on the stage because they couldn’t add 34783473 pounds to fat huo mala’s weight

so ya a lot of people are like omg wjjw hates xiao zhan!!! ya no they hate all of xnine but now xz is bringing enough money to make huo mala even fatter so good for huo mala i guess /s

also rumors and any bad media? lol wjjw doesn’t care they do a shit job at handling bad things too WHAT A WELLROUNDED COMPANY

OH ALSO TALK ABOUT HOW THYE HAD 3 DAYS TO PREPARE FOR A CONCERT???????????? WHAT????????? wjjw u mfs

anyway to summarize my rants above wjjw did  a SHIT job of promoting xnine as idols when the boys worked so hard and wjjw kept tryna push them to acting bye (some of them can’t act and literally don’t WANT TO ACT HHHSFLNF), wjjw is also horrible at letting all of the xnine members shine when as i mentioned before, they’re ALL TALENTED!!!! and then they just gave up on xnine somewhere in 2017-2018... ok anyway so is xnine disbanded? no although some may say their last concert in dec 2018 was their last concert ever they’re not disbanded

xiao zhan , gu jiacheng, and guo zifan went into acting

wu jiachang is focusing on his music etc (he was actually the first member of xnine i came across when i watched the collaboration/cyzj in 2018...yes carats this is That wu jiacheng!!!) MAN CAN SING

peng chuyue, zhao lei, xia zhiguang, yan xujia all went on produce camp 2019 (aNOTHER SURVIVAL SHOW BC THEY WANTED TO BE ON THE MF STAGE BC THATS WHY THEYRE HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE WJJW) along w/ fellow labelmates zhou zhennan and zhai xiao wen ... and everyone but peng chuyue made it to the final 11 spots and got to debut in the group r1se...UNFORTUNATELY ALSO UNDER WJJW HELP SEND HELP

if they’re in r1se does that mean they quit xnine? no! they’re in both that’s just how survival shows work it’s kind of weird

peng chuyue recently released a song and it’s really good and you can’t not tell me that it’s gay here it is

anyway xnine hasn’t disbanded!! the X玖少年团 (xnine) in the non-r1se members’ weibo names say that loud n clear!!! and when the r1se members from xnine won produce camp 2019, they all made xnine signs SO XNINE IS ALIVE and they do keep in contact!!

why haven’t we seen blatant public interactions btwen xiao zhan and the xnine members? because some frickin annoying xz solo stans/xfx claim that the other members use xz for popularity (HELLO??????? IN WHAT WORLD DOES THAT MAKE SENSE HALF OF THEM R LITERALLY HIS KIDS BUT OK) 

anyway in conclusion wjjw doesn’t know how to promote any of their artists, thus screwing over xnine members and making them go on a group hiatus where they focus on acting/singing/r1se for r1se members but they are very much xnine as of now !!!

here’s some REALLY GOOD RESOURCES to follow xnine bc as an ifan it’s mf hard

-xnine slideshow

-xnine faq

-xnine eng sub channel by yuer

-all of that content i listed above was made/subbed by one person and she is the queen of uhh...xnine international fandom outreach (????) how do i word it but she’s been subbing and spreading xnine long before xiao zhan’s popularity skyrocketed so go follow her for updates and memes here

-xnine intl fanbase twt and tumblr

-and here’s this twt account with dumb pics of xnine because why not

also i’m pretty sure there’s a wip video explaining x9′s history being created (by yuer because queen) so when that’s posted i’ll rb this and post it here

also here’s this video dragging wjjw
